I've got my keeper designation deadline approaching and would like to gather some thoughts on the best path forward. It's a 12 team h2h league with daily lineups, keepers can be kept 2 years after drafting, with each year kept costing a 1 round draft tax (drafted in 9th, keep next year at 8th round, and 1 more after that at 7th). I have some interesting potential keepers, who should I keep?
Jalen Brunson - keep as a last round pick, 2 yrs eligibility left
Evan Mobley - 5th round, 2 yrs
Cole Anthony - last round pick, 2 yrs left
Terry Rozier - 8th round, last year eligible
Klay - 11th round, 2 yrs left
Kuminga - last round, 2 yrs left
Wiseman - last round, 2 yrs
Of these options, Rozier and Brunson seem to be the best draft day values based on the B150, but I am looking at Mobley strongly too as he could grow into a 1st/2nd rounder possibly. Kuminga/Wiseman could pay off hugely, but probably not this year. what should I do? Thanks.
If there is no limit on the number of keepers i would say the value adds are:
Brunson for sure
Mobley is worth it to secure the upside if it hits, if it doesn't this is his floor so you wont lose value
Cole Anthony is probably worth it as a last round flier, at least while Suggs and Fultz are out, even if you drop him when they come back he's good draft equity
Rozier also worth it since the 8th round is well below his floor.
Klay is probably worth it also given that he is held here in the range of pick 120-132, if he was on the board at 125 he'd be a crazy steal
The rest i'm not sure its worth tying up more picks on.
Is there a limit?
I think I lean Terry, Brunson and Klay
Sorry, should have clarified - We are only allowed 2 keepers.
Mr Besbris, does this change your thinking at all? I agree Terry/Brunson are best pure values in terms of ADP, but does potential of Mobley being a special defender come into equation at all?
Klay probably drops out. I like him but he's going to rest a bunch.
Mobley doesn't really garner much consideration for you?
Not really, nah. Only maybe 1 round of value on the keeper? I'd rather go for the guys where there's a big jump between keeper slot and real draft slot.
